Josy1953 Posted September 10, 2017 #6 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I would be very surprised if they did given that Celebrity have now have kettles and tea and coffee in their cabins on cruises out of the UK since they realised that thus is what UK cruisers want.

annieuk Posted September 10, 2017 #7 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Cunard also have now introduced kettles into their cabins. P&O are hardly likely to remove them. The trouble is so many of these stupid rumours start and then they are repeated as truths. Goodness knows how many times Oriana has been sold, or about to be sold, ridiculous.

Toftwood Posted September 10, 2017 #8 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I agree that it is highly unlikely - a lot of MSC's advertising at present about basing the Magnifica in the UK for the 2018 summer season talks about how they are going to make it more "British" - and one of those things is tea/coffee making facilities - I am not sure why it is such a British thing but we have come to almost expect it but then we are known as a nation of tea drinkers!

seadog18 Posted September 10, 2017 #9 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Life without a cuppa first thing?!! Oh tragedy how could we carry on?(waves hands melodramatically in the air) Its the end of the world as we know it? Breathes deeply and calms down. If it ever happens and I sincerely hope it never does it will not stop me cruising.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toftwood Posted September 10, 2017 #10 Share Posted September 10, 2017 This will be my first P&O cruise so the kettle etc., will be a bit of novelty for me. Only had kettles once before! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaynor Posted September 10, 2017 #11 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I believe this information re kettles was posted (incorrectly ) on a certain web site a while ago. Sent from my SM-J500FN using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
besberry Posted September 10, 2017 #12 Share Posted September 10, 2017 This will be my first P&O cruise so the kettle etc., will be a bit of novelty for me. Only had kettles once before! We cruised out of NY on Celebrity last September. In the Elite lounge we met the head of hotel for the ship, asked for a kettle and it was in the cabin before we returned that evening. Always worth asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john watson Posted September 10, 2017 #13 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I can understand how these rumours start because some cruise lines and indeed hotels pack the kettle in a cupboard to be tidy. Then not everybody has the sudden idea "I could do with a cuppa" and starts rummaging. Only two such people need to meet up in the Buffet and start conferring about how bad the situation is.

This is good; on some cruise lines if you ask for a kettle, nine times out of ten the cabin steward turns up with a snare or a pair of tom toms.

I'm sure it'll be untrue however, Princess have taken kettles away (or at least they had on Emerald last summer) so you can't be sure.

On RC you get kettles and coffee makers on Junior suite and above cabins regardless where you are sailing from.
